No Kings protests are taking place nationwide today, with organisers expecting large turnout across thousands of locations.
The No Kings coalition has organised three major mobilisations since last summer. Demonstrations have focused on opposition to the Trump administration’s immigration policies and more recently the war in Iran.
Nearly 300 partner organisations, including the ACLU, Planned Parenthood Action Fund, SEIU and the League of Women Voters, are involved, with events taking place in over 3,000 locations across both urban and rural areas.
Recent polling from Reuters/Ipsos shows Donald Trump’s approval rating at 36%, with 29% approving of his handling of the economy.
As with many protest movements, questions remain about how public demonstrations may translate into longer-term political impact. Past movements have shown mixed results in turning large-scale turnout into electoral change.
With the midterm elections approaching, the political significance of these protests, if any, is likely to become clearer over time.No Kings protests are taking place nationwide today, with organisers expecting large turnout across thousands of locations.

A new poll suggests that 75% of Americans support releasing the remaining Epstein files — even if it implicates members of their own political party.
The findings highlight rare bipartisan agreement on one issue: transparency and accountability in the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case and its wider connections.
Calls to unseal documents and reveal more details have continued to grow, with many arguing the public deserves to know the full extent of who was involved — regardless of politics.

In a recent interview, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer responded to taunts from Donald Trump.
Trump has repeatedly mocked Starmer, saying “we’re not dealing with Winston Churchill here, are we” and “we don’t need your help once we’ve already won the war.”
Starmer dismissed the comments as pressure tactics and insisted he will act in Britain’s national interest, ruling out deploying troops to Iran.
The remarks come amid Trump’s apparent frustration with NATO allies over their inability to help unblock the Strait of Hormuz.In a recent interview, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer responded to taunts from Donald Trump.

Wab Kinew is drawing attention online after a fiery statement criticizing the idea of war with Iran, saying that working- and middle-class Americans shouldn’t be the ones sent to fight.
In his remarks, Kinew appeared to take aim at political and elite decision-makers, suggesting those with power and influence should bear the consequences of the conflicts they support — a message that has resonated with some and sparked backlash from others.
The comments come amid growing debate over U.S. foreign policy, military involvement abroad, and who ultimately pays the price for war.Wab Kinew is drawing attention online after a fiery statement criticizing the idea of war with Iran, saying that working- and middle-class Americans shouldn’t be the ones sent to fight.

During a speech in Miami, President Donald Trump just admitted—out loud, on camera—that he deliberately surrounds himself with losers because successful people make him feel small.
He can’t stand hearing their stories; he only wants an audience for his own. I wonder how Hegseth, Rubio and co feel about that.During a speech in Miami, President Donald Trump just admitted—out loud, on camera—that he deliberately surrounds himself with losers because successful people make him feel small.
